Cazzy Blog Candy Card

Hi Stampers, I wanted to share with you a card that Cazzy made from some of the blog candy she won. If you would like to visit Cazzy's blog, here it is: Cazzy Time
This is what Cazzy wrote:
I am still playing with my blog candy stamps from Crackerbox Palace, this time I decided to make a square card, then I turned it into an easel card, it is perfect for this because the paper behind the cut houses is covered with the part that attaches it to the card blank.
I think this is a really neat card, I like the way she made it into a easel card so it stands up with Santa flying across the sky.
If you would like to find out how Cazzy made the card stop by Cazzy's blog and find out!
Hope you enjoyed Cazzy's card as much as I do and hope you leave her a comment.

Two Funny Christmas Cards

Hi Stampers, 
On my first card, a little guy is looking for candy in the sock.
I stamped Dog In Sock with Memento Ink and then the saying, Christmas Time.
I put stickers around the edges and used nail heads in the corners.
I put white flock on the stocking
 
The second card is a funny Santa card.
 Santa and 8 Reindeer and the saying, Master and Visa was stamped with VersaFine Clair. This ink is perfect for fine detailed stamping.
The snowflakes are cut out from glitter foam sheets.
The snowflake in the middle is a button that I cut off the shank.

 
Smiles, Vicky

Merry Christmas Santa

Are you getting ready for Christmas? I got a little shopping done but without snow here in WI. it's hard to believe Christmas is only a couple of weeks away. But I still got out the Christmas stamps and made a couple of cards in hopes that it would put me in the Christmas mood.
I try to keep my Christmas cards more CAS. I stamped and embossed the Merry Christmas.
I stamped the image and colored it with Copic markers then cut it out as well as the red background scalloped circle with Spellbinders.

I tried to show the glasses with clear lacquer.

Two Christmas Card With Santa And Snowlady

Hi Stampers, OH OH OH, Christmas is coming fast.
My first card is a Step Card.

This card is 51/2x81/2. The directions are farther down.
I stamped the saying, Merry Christmas Script with VersaFine Clair
Snowlady With Tree was stamped and mounted.
I measured and cut the pink in one piece. 
I stamped the snowflake border with Martha Stewart's punch. I used the punched snowflakes and glued them back on the card.  
Here is what the card looks like on the side with the folds.

This is how the card was cut and folded. I put it sideways on the scor-board and from the end scored it at 21/4, 41/4 etc.

 

This one is pretty straightforward. Stamp and embossed the saying, Merry Christmas Calligraphy then cut it out with Spellbinder.
I stamped Santa with Toys on white and colored it with Copic.
The white circle, green scalloped, and red circles are cut with Spellbinders.

This is just to show all of Santa's toys.

Smiles, Vicky

Autumn Blessing

Happy Thanksgiving
Chick made the card with Crackerbox Palace stamps.
The leaves and saying are stamped on white card stock and painted with Smooch and cut out with Spellbinder die.
The red oval and black scalloped are cut out with Spellbinder also. The black pieces around the image that are over the red oval are the scrap pieces from the punch.
The strip across the card was embossed with Cuttlebug and just cut a strip of the folder size card. The black strip behind it has been punched with Martha Stewart punch.
The acorn and leaf are embellishments bought. They were also painted with Smooch.
 
Everyone at Crackerbox wishes you a Happy Thanksgiving.

Birthday Card With The Road Master Car

Hi Stampers, Vicky here this week.
The card today is a birthday card for some special guy. I stamped the Road Master on Ex-Press card stock and colored it with Copic markers. I did color the chrome on the car with a silver pen. The image was cut out with Spellbinders, and then I sponged the edges with Distress Ink. I cut a dark red cardstock to back the image. I added the silver Nail Heads in the corners to accent the silver from the car.
I stamped the Birthday Banner, cut it out, and sponged the Distress ink on the edges of that, too. 
 
Smiles, Vicky

Autumn Blessing

HAPPY FALL
 
Chick made this card. She started with putting green card stock on a dark brown card. She used Spellbinder 12" leaf border and sponged Brillance green over the leaves and put a ribbon through the loops in the border. A piece of dark red was cut for the left side of the card where Chick put the ribbon and leaves. On a scrap piece of gold paper, she stamped and colored Autumn Blessings and cut that piece with Spellbinder. The pumpkin from Spellbinder was cut out 7 times and folded in half and glued back to back. She added some of the left over leaf border to put over the pumpkin. The saying on the right side of the card was stamped and embossed, (that's why the word God is reflecting the flash). Then last added the 3 embellishments on the upper right hand side of the card.
Thanks for stopping by. Vicky
